Plantronics EncorePro HW540 - headset is rated3.14 out of5 by21.
Rated 5 out of 5 byTank from Just OkThe audio quality is average- that's about the last of the pros- The cons would be - Cost- Comfort and durability. 2 of the 3 attachments can wear out rather fast- The single ear piece Rubber- it will break and wear out very quickly from taking it on and off the rubber tears- The large over the head piece tends to be not snug and slides around. The attachment that wraps around both ears and the back of your head is probably the nicest one of all the attachments. The Ear piece cloth covers also come off very easily. For the money you are spending you would expect a decent longevity out of the product but if you are using these for a call center fast pace environment than look for another Solution.

Rated 5 out of 5 bykeithh143 from encorepro 540i've been using this headset for a few hours now. all I can say is WOW. I think they made this thing out of air, it's so light. the 3 in 1 design offeres so many ways to use your headset. the mic is top notch as well, it's small, and keeps background noise down.

Rated 5 out of 5 byGayle from Works great!This headset works so much better than the around-the-ear type and is much sturdier. No problems hearing or talking through the set.

Rated 5 out of 5 byAndy S from Quality Needs To Step Up To the 7xx SeriesThe modular design is welcomed, but not for everyone. The height for the behind the head isn't as adjustable for agents that are under 5'3" or over 6'. It is either too loose or too snug for comfort and adequate mic positioning. The clips for each wear-style feel cheap and agents toss headsets or start to walk away while still corded all the time. While none have broken yet, it is just a matter of time as they experiment with what style is most comfortable for them. The worst component is the foam cushion on the ear piece. These, like all others, disintegrate rapidly and require frequent replacement. I would love to try this design at the quality level of a 7xx series with the "leatherette" ear cushion. While these cushions are available at additional cost for the 540, when you have 1100 agents it isn't exactly practical, cost-effective, nor efficient to swap them out when purchasing these in bulk numbers. Fortunately, I only ordered 10 as a pilot program.

Rated 5 out of 5 byyellowflower from Design could be betterAs a 911 operator I decided to purchase this headset mainly for its versatility. My previous headset was an over the ear style but it didnt stay in place and was too flimsy (also a plantronics).I have only used this headset for a few days and I already dont like it. I prefer to wear it over my head but it is so uncomfortable. The earpiece itself while small, is too heavy and hurts my ear. After wearing for only a few hours my ear is so sore. I am constantly readjusting it trying to find a comfortable spot. Really disappointed in this headset. If I could return it I would.

Rated 5 out of 5 byShar from EncorePro HW540 & AP15I received the headset & AP15 adaptor in a timely manner. I love the clarity of the headset, however I don't like the fit of any of the (3) headsets they all seem to large, but I am making them work. It was easy to set up and I love having my hands free!! Overall a great product.

Rated 5 out of 5 byAgent67 from Comfortable but there isn’t much noise cancelingI have worn this headset for 2 years. It is lightweight to wear. Unfortunately I have had to super glue the ear piece back together twice. The little connector to the ear piece is not sturdy. As far as noise canceling, my customers tend to hear my coworkers over me. The mouth piece needs to extend closer to my mouth instead of going out straight. I just bought a new headset as a backup, hoping this one’s noise canceling is better.
